I believe the gluster data store for the engine is up and working correctly.  The rest are not mounted, as the engine hasn't managed to start correctly yet.  I did perform the copy-a-junk-file into the data store, then check to ensure its there on another host, then delete that and see that it disappeared on the first host; it passed that test.  Here's the info and status.  (I have NOT performed the steps that Krutika and Ravishankar suggested yet, as I don't have my data volumes working again yet.

hosted-engine --deploy failed (would not come up on my existing gluster storage).  However, I realized no changes were written to my existing storage.  So, I went back to trying to get my old engine running.  

hosted-engine --vm-status is now taking a very long time (5+minutes) to return, and it returns stail information everywhere.  I thought perhaps the lockspace is corrupt, so tried to clean that and metadata, but both are failing (--cleam-metadata has hung and I can't even ctrl-c out of it).

How can I reinitialize all the lockspace/metadata safely?  There is no engine or VMs running currently....

I think the first thing to make sure is that your storage is up and running. So can you mount the gluster volumes and able to access the contents there?
Please provide the gluster volume info and gluster volume status of the volumes that you're using.

Well, things went from bad to very, very bad....

It appears that during one of the 2 minute lockups, the fencing agents decided that another node in the cluster was down.  As a result, 2 of the 3 nodes were simultaneously reset with fencing agent reboot.  After the nodes came back up, the engine would not start.  All running VMs (including VMs on the 3rd node that was not rebooted) crashed.

I've now been working for about 3 hours trying to get the engine to come up.  I don't know why it won't start.  hosted-engine --vm-start says its starting, but it doesn't start (virsh doesn't show any VMs running).  I'm currently running --deploy, as I had run out of options for anything else I can come up with.  I hope this will allow me to re-import all my existing VMs and allow me to start them back up after everything comes back up.

I do have an unverified geo-rep backup; I don't know if it is a good backup (there were several prior messages to this list, but I didn't get replies to my questions.  It was running in what I believe to be "strange", and the data directories are larger than their source).

I'll see if my --deploy works, and if not, I'll be back with another message/help request.

When the dust settles and I'm at least minimally functional again, I really want to understand why all these technologies designed to offer redundancy conspired to reduce uptime and create failures where there weren't any otherwise.  I thought with hosted engine, 3 ovirt servers and glusterfs with minimum replica 2+arb or replica 3 should have offered strong resilience against server failure or disk failure, and should have prevented / recovered from data corruption.  Instead, all of the above happened (once I get my cluster back up, I still have to try and recover my webserver VM, which won't boot due to XFS corrupt journal issues created during the gluster crashes).  I think a lot of these issues were rooted from the upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2.

[12127.466494] perf: interrupt took too long (8263 > 8150), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 24000

--------------------
I think this is the cause of the massive ovirt performance issues irrespective of gluster volume.  At the time this happened, I was also ssh'ed into the host, and was doing some rpm querry commands.  I had just run rpm -qa |grep glusterfs (to verify what version was actually installed), and that command took almost 2 minutes to return!  Normally it takes less than 2 seconds.  That is all pure local SSD IO, too....

I'm no expert, but its my understanding that anytime a software causes these kinds of issues, its a serious bug in the software, even if its mis-handled exceptions.  Is this correct?

Thank you for your response.

I have 4 gluster volumes.  3 are replica 2 + arbitrator.  replica bricks are on ovirt1 and ovirt2, arbitrator on ovirt3.  The 4th volume is replica 3, with a brick on all three ovirt machines.

The first 3 volumes are on an SSD disk; the 4th is on a Seagate SSHD (same in all three machines).  On ovirt3, the SSHD has reported hard IO failures, and that brick is offline.  However, the other two replicas are fully operational (although they still show contents in the heal info command that won't go away, but that may be the case until I replace the failed disk).

What is bothering me is that ALL 4 gluster volumes are showing horrible performance issues.  At this point, as the bad disk has been completely offlined, I would expect gluster to perform at normal speed, but that is definitely not the case.

I've also noticed that the performance hits seem to come in waves: things seem to work acceptably (but slow) for a while, then suddenly, its as if all disk IO on all volumes (including non-gluster local OS disk volumes for the hosts) pause for about 30 seconds, then IO resumes again.  During those times, I start getting VM not responding and host not responding notices as well as the applications having major issues.

I've shut down most of my VMs and am down to just my essential core VMs (shedded about 75% of my VMs).  I still am experiencing the same issues.

Am I correct in believing that once the failed disk was brought offline that performance should return to normal?

(appears a lot).

I also found on the ssh session of that, some sysv warnings about the backing disk for one of the gluster volumes (straight replica 3).  The glusterfs process for that disk on that machine went offline.  Its my understanding that it should continue to work with the other two machines while I attempt to replace that disk, right?  Attempted writes (touching an empty file) can take 15 seconds, repeating it later will be much faster.

Gluster generates a bunch of different log files, I don't know what ones you want, or from which machine(s).

How do I do "volume profiling"?

Thanks!

Any issues with your underlying disks. Can you also attach output of volume profiling?

Ok, things have gotten MUCH worse this morning.  I'm getting random errors from VMs, right now, about a third of my VMs have been paused due to storage issues, and most of the remaining VMs are not performing well.

At this point, I am in full EMERGENCY mode, as my production services are now impacted, and I'm getting calls coming in with problems...

I'd greatly appreciate help...VMs are running VERY slowly (when they run), and they are steadily getting worse.  I don't know why.  I was seeing CPU peaks (to 100%) on several VMs, in perfect sync, for a few minutes at a time (while the VM became unresponsive and any VMs I was logged into that were linux were giving me the CPU stuck messages in my origional post).  Is all this storage related?

I also have two different gluster volumes for VM storage, and only one had the issues, but now VMs in both are being affected at the same time and same way.

[Adding gluster-users to look at the heal issue]

Hello:

I've been having some cluster and gluster performance issues lately.  I also found that my cluster was out of date, and was trying to apply updates (hoping to fix some of these), and discovered the ovirt 4.1 repos were taken completely offline.  So, I was forced to begin an upgrade to 4.2.  According to docs I found/read, I needed only add the new repo, do a yum update, reboot, and be good on my hosts (did the yum update, the engine-setup on my hosted engine).  Things seemed to work relatively well, except for a gluster sync issue that showed up.

My cluster is a 3 node hyperconverged cluster.  I upgraded the hosted engine first, then engine 3.  When engine 3 came back up, for some reason one of my gluster volumes would not sync.  Here's sample output:

---------
Its been in this state for a couple days now, and bandwidth monitoring shows no appreciable data moving.  I've tried repeatedly commanding a full heal from all three clusters in the node.  Its always the same files that need healing.

When running gluster volume heal data-hdd statistics, I see sometimes different information, but always some number of "heal failed" entries.  It shows 0 for split brain.

I'm not quite sure what to do.  I suspect it may be due to nodes 1 and 2 still being on the older ovirt/gluster release, but I'm afraid to upgrade and reboot them until I have a good gluster sync (don't need to create a split brain issue).  How do I proceed with this?

Second issue: I've been experiencing VERY POOR performance on most of my VMs.  To the tune that logging into a windows 10 vm via remote desktop can take 5 minutes, launching quickbooks inside said vm can easily take 10 minutes.  On some linux VMs, I get random messages like this:
Message from syslogd@unifi at May 28 20:39:23 ...
 kernel:[6171996.308904] NMI watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 22s! [mongod:14766]

(the process and PID are often different)

I'm not quite sure what to do about this either.  My initial thought was upgrad everything to current and see if its still there, but I cannot move forward with that until my gluster is healed...

Thanks!
